As someone who moves every 2-3 years you would think that packing up and moving our lives, including moving away from friends, would be old hat by now. Very much not so.
I miss my friends. The friends that know me. The ones that don't care that I'm inappropriate, have the sense of humor of a 14 year old and enjoy brainless tv on occasion. Those friends.
Sure, I'm meeting some incredible ladies here that will also go in this category, but it always takes me a few months to "feel people out" so to speak and figure out who I gel with. I'll get there; I know I will.
In the meantime though, it gets lonely.
Creating has always been therapeutic for me, but especially so during moves. I find myself reaching for photos of family and friends and laughing while I cut paper!
Oh how I miss them all and for different reasons! So happy to have these photos and to have this creative outlet to look back at the fun times we had!
I never know what to do with vellum so I decided to wing it and stitch a little envelope for my journaling tag because I knew I wanted more than just a few words for this layout. I needed more than a few words and I'm so happy with how it turned out.
Here's to making more amazing friends that will shed tears with me when moving time comes around once again in 2 years!
